Function Documentation

void FixPageSegMode	(	tesseract::TessBaseAPI *	api,
		tesseract::PageSegMode	pagesegmode
	)

We have 2 possible sources of pagesegmode: a config file and the command line. For backwards compatibility reasons, the default in tesseract is tesseract::PSM_SINGLE_BLOCK, but the default for this program is tesseract::PSM_AUTO. We will let the config file take priority, so the command-line default can take priority over the tesseract default, so we use the value from the command line only if the retrieved mode is still tesseract::PSM_SINGLE_BLOCK, indicating no change in any config file. Therefore the only way to force tesseract::PSM_SINGLE_BLOCK is from the command line. It would be simpler if we could set the value before Init, but that doesn't work.

int main	(	int	argc,
		char **	argv
	)

This program reads in a text file consisting of feature samples from a training page in the following format:

   FontName UTF8-char-str xmin ymin xmax ymax page-number
    NumberOfFeatureTypes(N)
      FeatureTypeName1 NumberOfFeatures(M)
         Feature1
         ...
         FeatureM
      FeatureTypeName2 NumberOfFeatures(M)
         Feature1
         ...
         FeatureM
      ...
      FeatureTypeNameN NumberOfFeatures(M)
         Feature1
         ...
         FeatureM
   FontName CharName ...

The result of this program is a binary inttemp file used by the OCR engine.

Parameters

argc	number of command line arguments
argv	array of command line arguments

Returns

none

Note

Exceptions: none
